Definitions

  • This invention relates to certain 4,5-disubstituted-2-aminopyrimidines, to processes for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and to their use in medicine.
  • Angiogenesis the growth of capillaries from existing blood vessels, is an essential process in normal embryonic development, tissue repair and some aspects of female reproductive function. It is also associated with the development of several pathological disorders including solid tumour growth, metastasis, psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as diabetic retinopathy and age related macular degeneration (Folkman, Nature Medicine, (1995) 1, 27-310).
  • VEGF vascular endothelial growth factor
  • PDGF platelet derived growth factor
  • a & b FGF acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors
  • VEGF in dimeric form is a ligand that binds to two transmembrane tyrosine kinase associated receptors, expressed exclusively on proliferating endothelial cells, KDR (Flk-1 in mice) also known as VEGFR-2, and Flt-1 also known as VEGFR-1. Binding of VEGF to KDR/Flk and Flt leads to receptor dimerisation, kinase activation, autophosphorylation of the receptor and phosphorylation of intracellular substrates. An analogous series of events ensues after ligand occupancy of the more widely expressed tyrosine kinase associated FGFr receptor by aFGF or bFGF. Thus receptor tyrosine kinase activity initiates a cellular signalling pathway leading to proliferation.

Description

This invention relates to certain 4,5-disubstituted-2-aminopyrimidines, to processes for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and to their use in medicine.
Angiogenesis, the growth of capillaries from existing blood vessels, is an essential process in normal embryonic development, tissue repair and some aspects of female reproductive function. It is also associated with the development of several pathological disorders including solid tumour growth, metastasis, psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as diabetic retinopathy and age related macular degeneration (Folkman, Nature Medicine, (1995) 1, 27-310).
Several growth factors have been shown to mediate angiogenesis through alteration of vascular permeability, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF; G. Breier et al., Trends in Cell Biology, 1996, 6, 454-6), platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (a & b FGF).
VEGF in dimeric form is a ligand that binds to two transmembrane tyrosine kinase associated receptors, expressed exclusively on proliferating endothelial cells, KDR (Flk-1 in mice) also known as VEGFR-2, and Flt-1 also known as VEGFR-1. Binding of VEGF to KDR/Flk and Flt leads to receptor dimerisation, kinase activation, autophosphorylation of the receptor and phosphorylation of intracellular substrates. An analogous series of events ensues after ligand occupancy of the more widely expressed tyrosine kinase associated FGFr receptor by aFGF or bFGF. Thus receptor tyrosine kinase activity initiates a cellular signalling pathway leading to proliferation.
Antagonism of VEGF with antibody completely suppresses neovascularisation and growth of human rhabdomyosarcoma A673 speroids in athymic mice (Borgstrom et al, Cancer Res., 1996, 56 4032-4039). Suppression of bFGF gene expression by interferons α and β inhibits capillary density in mice, leading to pancreatic eyelet tumour suppression (Folkman et al, Proc. Natl. Acad.Sci. 1996, 93, 2002 and Singh et al Proc.Natl. Acad. Sci. 1995, 92, 10457). Other receptor associated kinases such as PDGFβ and EGFr may also have some role in mediating angiogenesis.
We have now found certain 4,5-disubstituted-2-aminopyrimidines which are potent and selective inhibitors of receptor tyrosine kinases involved in angiogenesis, especially KDR kinase and/or FGFr kinase. Selective inhibition of these kinases can be expected to have a beneficial effect and the compounds are thus of use in the prophylaxis and treatment of disease states associated with angiogenesis, as described hereinafter.
Thus, according to one aspect of the invention, we provide a compound of formula (1):

The substituent R17 may be selected from an atom or group R18 or -Alk(R18)m, where R18 is a halogen atom, or an amino (—NH2), —NHR19 [where R19 is an -Alk(R18)m, heterocycloaliphatic, -Alk-heterocycloaliphatic, aryl or heteroaryl group], —N(R19)2 [where each R19 group is the same or different], nitro, cyano, hydroxyl (—OH), —OR19, formyl, carboxyl (—CO2H), esterified carboxyl, thiol (—SH), —SR19, —COR19, —CSR19, —SO3H, —SO2R19, —SO2NH2, —SO2NHR19, SO2N[R19]2, —CONH2, —CSNH2, —CONHR19, —CSNHR19, —CON[R19]2, —CSN[R19]2, —N(R14)SO2H [where R14 is as defined above], —N(R14)SO2R19, —N[SO2R19]2, —N(R14)SO2NH2, —N(R14)SO2NHR19, —N(R14)SO2N[R19]2, —N(R14)COR19, —N(R14)CONH2, —N(R14)CONHR19, —N(R14)CON[R19]2, —N(R14)CSR19, —N(R14)CSNH2, —N(R14)CSNHR19, —N(R14)CSN[R19]2, —N(R14)C(O)OR19, or an optionally substituted cycloaliphatic, heterocycloaliphatic, aryl or heteroaryl group; Alk is a straight or branched C1-6 alkylene, C2-6 alkenylene or C2-6 alkynylene chain, optionally interrupted by one, two or three —O— or —S— atoms or S(O)—, —S(O)2— or —N(R14)— groups; and m is zero or an integer 1, 2 or 3.
When in the group -Alk(R18)m m is an integer 1, 2 or 3, it is to be understood that the substituent or substituents R18 may be present on any suitable carbon atom in -Alk. Where more than one R18 substituent is present these may be the same or different and may be present on the same or different atom in -Alk or in R17 as appropriate. Thus for example, R17 may represent a —CH(R18)2 group, such as a —CH(OH)Ar group where Ar is an aryl or heteroaryl group as defined below. Clearly, when m is zero and no substituent R18 is present the alkylene, alkenylene or alkynylene chain represented by Alk becomes an alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group.

Optional substituents present on the Alk1 group include R18 substituents described above.
When Alk is present in or as a substituent R17 it may be for example a methylene, ethylene, n-propylene, i-propylene, n-butylene, i-butylene, s-butylene, t-butylene, ethenylene, 2-propenylene, 2-butenylene, 3-butenylene, ethynylene, 2-propynylene, 2-butynylene or 3-butynylene chain, optionally interrupted by one, two, or three —O— or —S—, atoms or —S(O)—, —S(O)2— or —N(R14)— groups.
When R18 is present in compounds of formula (1) as an optionally substituted cycloaliphatic group it may be an optionally substituted C3-10 cycloaliphatic group.

Compounds according to the invention are potent and selective inhibitors of KDR and/or FGFr4 kinases as demonstrated by differential inhibition of these enzymes when compared to inhibition of other protein kinases such as EGFr kinase, p56lck kinase, ZAP-70 kinase, protein kinase C, Csk kinase and p59fyn kinase. The ability of the compounds to act in this way may be simply determined by employing tests such as those described in the Examples hereinafter.
The compounds according to the invention are thus of particular use in the prophylaxis and treatment of diseases in which inappropriate KDR kinase action plays a role, for example in disease states associated with angiogenesis. The compounds are then of use for example in the prophylaxis and treatment of cancer, prosiasis, rheumatoid arthritis, Kaposi's Sarcoma, ischemic heart disease, atherosclerosis and occular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, involving retinal vessl proliferation and the invention is to be understood to extend to such uses and to the use of a compound of formula (1) in the preparation of a medicament for the prophylaxis and teatment of such diseases.
For the prophylaxis or treatment of disease the compounds according to the invention may be administered as pharmaceutical compositions, and according to a further aspect of the invention we provide a pharmaceutical composition which comprises a compound of formula (1) together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, excipients or diluents.
Pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may take a form suitable for oral, buccal, parenteral, nasal, topical or rectal administration, or a form suitable for administration by inhalation or insufflation.
For oral administration, the pharmaceutical compositions may take the form of, for example, tablets, lozenges or capsules prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable excipients such as binding agents (e.g. pregelatinised maize starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose); fillers (e.g. lactose, microcrystalline cellulose or calcium hydrogen phosphate); lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, talc or silica); disintegrants (e.g. potato starch or sodium glycollate); or wetting agents (e.g. sodium lauryl sulphate). The tablets may be coated by methods well known in the art. Liquid preparations for oral administration may take the form of, for example, solutions, syrups or suspensions, or they may be presented as a dry product for constitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may be prepared by conventional means with pharmaceutically acceptable additives such as suspending agents, emulsifying agents, non-aqueous vehicles and preservatives. The preparations may also contain buffer salts, flavouring, colouring and sweetening agents as appropriate.
Preparations for oral administration may be suitably formulated to give controlled release of the active compound.
For buccal administration the compositions may take the form of tablets or lozenges formulated in conventional manner.
The compounds for formula (1) may be formulated for parenteral administration by injection, including bolus injection or infusion or particle mediated injection. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dosage form, e.g. in glass ampoule or multi dose containers, e.g. glass vials or a device containing a compressed gas such as helium for particle mediated administration. The compositions for bolus injection or infusion may take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending, stabilising, preserving and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g. sterile pyrogen-free water, before use. For particle mediated administration the complex may be coated on particles such as microscopic gold particles.
In addition to the formulations described above, the compounds of formula (1) may also be formulated as a depot preparation. Such long acting formulations may be administered by implantation or by intramuscular injection. Where desired, the compounds according to the invention may also be conjugated to a polymer, e.g. a naturally occuring polymer such as albumin, to prolong the half life of the compounds when in use. Such conjugates may be formulated and delivered as described above.
For nasal administration or administration by inhalation, the compounds for use according to the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of an aerosol spray presentation for pressurised packs or a nebuliser, with the use of suitable propellant, e.g. dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas or mixture of gases.
The compositions may, if desired, be presented in a pack or dispenser device which may contain one or more unit dosage forms containing the active ingredient. The pack or dispensing device may be accompanied by instructions for administration.
The quantity of a compound of the invention required for the prophylaxis or treatment of a particular condition will vary depending on the compound chosen, and the condition of the patient to be treated. In general, however, daily dosages may range from around 100 ng/kg to 100 mg/kg e.g. around 0.01 mg/kg to 40 mg/kg body weight for oral or buccal administration, from around 10 ng/kg to 50 mg/kg body weight for parenteral administration and around 0.05 mg to around 1000 mg e.g. around 0.5 mg to around 1000 mg for nasal administration or administration by inhalation or insufflation.
The compounds of the invention may be prepared by a number of processes as generally described below and more specifically in the Examples hereinafter. In the following process description, the symbols R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 when used in the text or formulae depicted are to be understood to represent those groups described above in relation to formula (1) unless otherwise indicated. In the reactions described below, it may be necessary to protect reactive functional groups, for example hydroxy, amino, thio or carboxy groups, where these are desired in the final product, to avoid their unwanted participation in the reactions. Conventional protecting groups may be used in accordance with standard practice [see, for example, Green, T. W. in “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis”, John Wiley and Sons, 1991]. In some instances, deprotection may be the final step in the synthesis of a compound of formula (1) and the processes according to the invention described hereinafter are to be understood to extend to such removal of protecting groups.
Thus according to a further aspect of the invention, a compound of formula (1) may be prepared by reaction of a guanidine of formula (2):
Figure US06600037-20030729-C00004
or a salt thereof
with an enaminone of formula (3):
R4COC(R5)CHN(R20)(R21)  (3)
where R20 and R21, which may be the same or different is each a C1-6 Alkyl group.
The reaction may be performed in a solvent, for example a protic solvent such as an alcohol, e.g. ethanol, ethoxyethanol or propan-2-ol, optionally in the presence of a base e.g. an Alkali metal base, such as sodium hydroxide or potassium carbonate, at an elevated temperature, e.g. the reflux temperature.
Salts of the compounds of formula (2) include acid salts such as inorganic acid salts e.g. hydrochlorides or nitrates.
Intermediate guanidines of formula (2) may be prepared by reaction of the corresponding amine of formula (4):
Figure US06600037-20030729-C00005
with cyanamide at an elevated temperature. The reaction may be performed in a solvent such as ethanol at an elevated temperature, e.g. up to the reflux temperature. Where it is desired to obtain a salt of a guanidine of formula (2) the reaction may be performed in the presence of a concentrated acid, e.g. hydrochloric or nitric acid.
The amines of formula (4) are either known compounds or may be obtained by conventional procedures, for example by hydrogenation of the corresponding nitro derivatives using for example hydrogen in the presence of a metal catalyst in a suitable solvent, for example as more particularly described in the interconversion reactions discussed below. The nitrobenzenes for this particular reaction are either known compounds or may be prepared using similar methods to those used for the preparation of the known compounds.
Intermediate enaminones of formula (3) are either known compounds or may be prepared by reaction of an acetyl derivative R4COCH2R5 with an acetal (R20)(R21)NCH(OR22)2 (where R22 is a C1-6Alkyl group such as a methyl or ethyl group) at an elevated temperature. The starting materials for this reaction are either known compounds or may be prepared by methods analogous to those used for the preparation of the known compounds.
In another process according to the invention, a compound of formula (1) may be prepared by displacement of a chlorine atom in a pyrimidine of formula (5):
Figure US06600037-20030729-C00006
with an amine of formula (4)
The reaction may be performed at an elevated temperature, for example the reflux temperature, where necessary in the presence of a solvent, for example an alcohol, such as 2-ethoxyethanol or isopopanol, a cyclic ether, e.g. dioxane or a substituted amide such as dimethylformamide, optionally in the presence of a base, for example an organic amine such as pyridine.
Intermediate pyrimidines of formula (5) may be obtained by reaction of a corresponding pyrimidine of formula (6):
Figure US06600037-20030729-C00007
with phosphorous oxychloride optionally in a solvent such as a substituted amide e.g. dimethylformamide at an elevated temperature, for example the reflux temperature.
Intermediates of formula (6) may be prepared from the corresponding amine of formula (7):
Figure US06600037-20030729-C00008
with sodium nitrite in an aqueous acid,e.g. aqueous sulphuric acid at around ambient temperature.
Amines of formula (7) may be prepared by reaction of an enaminone of formula (3) with a guanidine salt, e.g. guanidine carbonate, as described above for the preparation of compounds of formula (1).
Compounds of formula (1) may also be prepared by interconversion of other compounds of formula (1) and it is to be understood that the invention extends to such interconversion processes. Thus, for example, standard substitution approaches employing for example Alkylation, arylation, heteroarylation, acylation, thioacylation, sulphonylation, formylation or coupling reactions may be used to add new substitutents to and/or extend existing substituents in compounds of formula (1). Alternatively existing substituents in compounds of formula (1) may be modified by for example oxidation, reduction or cleavage reactions to yield other compounds of formula (1).
The following describes in general terms a number of approaches which can be employed to modify existing phenyl and/or other aromatic of heteroaromatic groups in compounds of formula (1). It will be appreciated that each of these reactions will only be possible where an appropriate functional group exists in a compound of formula (1). Where desired, these reactions may also be performed on intermediates to compounds of formula (1).
Thus, for example Alkylation, arylation or heteroarylation of a compound of formula (1) may be achieved by reaction of the compound with a reagent Alk, L or ArL, where Alk is an Alkyl group and Ar is an aryl or heteroaryl group as defined above in relation to compounds of formula (1) and L is a leaving atom or group such as a halogen atom, e.g. a chlorine or bromine atom, or a sulphonyloxy group, e.g. an arylsulphonyloxy group such as a p-toluenesulphonyloxy group.
The Alkylation or arylation reaction may be carried out in the presence of a base, e.g. an inorganic base such as a carbonate, e.g. caesium or potassium carbonate, an Alkoxide, e.g. potassium t-butoxide, or a hydride, e.g. sodium hydride, in a dipolar aprotic solvent such as an amide, e.g. a substituted amide such as dimethylformamide or an ether, e.g. a cyclic ether such as tetrahydrofuran, at around 0° C. to around 40° C.
In a variation of this process the leaving group L may be alternatively part of the compound of formula (1) and the reaction performed with an appropriate nucleophilic reagent at an elevated temperature. Particular nucleophilic reagents include cyclic amines, such as piperazine. Where appropriate the reaction may be performed in a solvent such as an aprotic solvent, e.g. a substituted amide such as dimethylformamide.
In another general example of an interconversion process, a compound of formula (1) may be acylated or thioacylated. The reaction may be performed for example with an acyl halide or anhydride in the presence of a base, such as a tertiary amine e.g. triethylamine in a solvent such as a halogenated hydrocarbon, e.g. dichloromethane at for example ambient temperature, or by reaction with a thioester in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran at a low temperature such as around 0° C. The reaction is particularly suitable for use with compounds of formula (1) containing primary or secondary amino groups.
In a further general example of an interconversion process, a compound of formula (1) may be formylated, for example by reaction of the compound with a mixed anhydride HCOOCOCH3 or with a mixture of formic acid and acetic anhydride.
Compounds of formula (1) may be prepared in another general interconversion reaction by sulphonylation, for example by reaction of the compound with a reagent AlkS(O)2L, or ArS(O)2L in the presence of a base, for example an inorganic base such as sodium hydride in a solvent such as an amide, e.g. a substituted amide such as dimethylformamide at for example ambient temperature. The reaction may in particular be performed with compounds of formula (1) possessing a primary or secondary amino group.
In further examples of interconversion reactions according to the invention compounds of formula (1) may be prepared from other compounds of formula (1) by modification of existing functional groups in the latter.
Thus in one example, ester groups —CO2Alk1 in compounds of formula (1) may be converted to the corresponding acid [—CO2H] by acid- or base-catalysed hydrolysis or by catalytic hydrogenation depending on the nature of the group Alk1. Acid- or base-catalysed hydrolysis may be achieved for example by treatment with an organic or inorganic acid, e.g. trifluoroacetic acid in an aqueous solvent or a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid in a solvent such as dioxan or an Alkali metal hydroxide, e.g. lithium hydroxide in an aqueous alcohol, e.g. aqueous methanol. Catalytic hydrogenation may be carried out using for example hydrogen in the presence of a metal catalyst, for example palladium on a support such as carbon in a solvent such as an ether, e.g. tetrahydrofuran or an alcohol, e.g. methanol.
In a second example, —OAlk [where Alk represents an Alkyl group such as a methyl group] groups in compounds of formula (1) may be cleaved to the corresponding alcohol —OH by reaction with boron tribromide in a solvent such as a halogenated hydrocarbon, e.g. dichloromethane at a low temperature, e.g. around −78° C.
In another example, alcohol —OH groups in compounds of formula (1) may be converted to a corresponding —OAlk or —OAr group by coupling with a reagent AlkOH or ArOH in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran in the presence of a phosphine, e.g. triphenylphosphine and an activator such as diethyl-, diisopropyl-, or dimethylazodicarboxylate.
Aminosulphonylamino [—NHSO2NH2] groups in compounds of formula (1) may be obtained, in another example, by reaction of a corresponding amine [—NH2] with sulphamide in the presence of an organic base such as pyridine at an elevated temperature, e.g. the reflux temperature.
In another example of an interconversion process secondary amine groups in compounds of formula (1) may be Alkylated using an alcohol, e.g. ethanol and catalytic hydrogenation, employing for example hydrogen in the presence of a metal catalyst such as palladium on a support such as carbon.
In a further example, amine [—NH2] groups in compounds of formula (1) may be obtained by hydrolysis from a corresponding imide by reaction with hydrazine in a solvent such as an alcohol, e.g. ethanol at ambient temperature. In an alternative, amine groups may also be generated by reduction of the corresponding nitrile, for example using a reducing agent such as a borohydride, e.g. sodium borohydride or cerium trichloride.
In another example, a nitro [—NO2] group may be reduced to an amine [—NH2], for example by catalytic hydrogenation as just described, or by chemical reduction using for example a metal, e.g. tin or iron, in the presence of an acid such as hydrochloric acid.
N-oxides of compounds of formula (1) may be prepared for example by oxidation of the corresponding nitrogen base using an oxidising agent such as hydrogen peroxide in the presence of an acid such as acetic acid, at an elevated temperature, for example around 70° C. to 80° C., or alternatively by reaction with a peracid such as peracetic acid in a solvent, e.g. dichloromethane, at ambient temperature.
Where salts of compounds of formula (1) are desired, these may be prepared by conventional means, for example by reaction of a compound of formula (1) with an appropriate acid or base in a suitable solvent or mixture of solvents, e.g. an organic solvent such as an ether, e.g. diethylether, or an alcohol, e.g. ethanol.

Biological Activity
The following assays were used to demonstrate the activity and selectivity of compounds according to the invention:
The activity of the comounds against KDR kinase and FGFR2 kinase can be determined in the following two assays:
KDR Kinase and FGFr2 Kinase
The activities of recombinant KDR kinase and FGFr2 kinase were determined by measuring their ability to transfer the γ-phosphate from [33P]ATP to polyglutamic acid-tyrosine (pEY).
The assay methodology employed for both kinases is identical except that in the assay of KDR kinase the diluent used throughout was 20 mM HEPES pH 7.25 containing 2 mM MnCl2, 2 mM MnCl2, 5 mM DTT and 0.05% Brij 35, whereas in the FGFr2 assay 10 mM MnCl2 is used instead of 2 mM MnCl2 and 2 mM MnCl2.
The assay was conducted in a total volume of 202 μl containing 1-10 ng kinase, 5 μg/ml pEY (4:1) (Sigma, UK), 1 μM ATP (containing˜50,000 cpm [33P]ATP (Amersham International, UK) (Sigma, UK) and test inhibitors at the appropriate concentration. The test inhibitors were dissolved in DMSO and added such that the final concentration of DMSO in the assay did not exceed 2% (v/v). The assay was initiated by addition of kinase and terminated after 10 minutes incubation at room temperature by addition of 50 μl of 20 mM HEPES pH 7.25 containing 0.125M EDTA and 10 mM ATP. A 200 μl aliquot was applied to the well of a Millipore (UK) MAFC filter plate containing 100 μl of 30% (w/v) trichloroacetic acid (TCA). The plate was then placed on a suitable manifold and connected to a vacuum. After complete elimination of the liquid each well was washed under vacuum using five volumes (100 μl per wash) of 10% (w/v) TCA and finally two volumes (100 μl per wash) of ethanol. The bottom of the filter plate was then sealed and 100 μl per well of Ultima Gold (Beckham, UK) scintillant was added to each well. The readioactivity was measured using an appropiate scintillation counter such as a Wallac Trilux or Packard TopCount. The IC50 value for each inhibitor was obtained from log dose inhibition curves fitted to the four-parameters logistic equation.
In this assay the most active compounds accoding to the invention have IC50 values of around 1 μM and below.
The selectivity of compounds according to the invention can be determined in the following assays:
p56lck Kinase Assay
The tyrosine kinase activity of p56lck was determined using a RR-src peptide (RRLIEDNEYTARG) and [γ-33P]ATP as substrates. Quantitation of the 33P-phosphorylated peptide formed by the action of p56lck was achieved using an adaption of the method of Geissler et al (J. Biol. Chem. (1990) 265, 22255-22261).
All assays were performed in 20 mM HEPES pH 7.5 containing 10 mM MgCl2, 10 mM MnCl2, 0.05% Brij, 1M ATP (0.5 μCi[γ-33P]ATP) and 0.8 mg/ml RR-src. Inhibitors in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) were added such that the final concentration of DMSO did not exceed 1%, and enzyme such that the consumption of ATP was less than 10%. After incubation at 30° C. for 15 min, the reaction was terminated by the addition of one-third volume of stop reagent (0.25 mM EDTA and 33 mM ATP in dH2O). A 15 μl aliquot was removed, spotted onto a P-30 filtermat (Wallac, Milton Keynes, UK), and washed sequentially with 1% acetic acid and de-ionised water to remove ATP. The bound 33P-RR-src was quantitated by scintillation counting of the filtermat in a Betaplate scintillation counter (Wallac, Milton Keynes, UK) after addition of Meltilex scintillant (Wallac, Milton Keynes, UK).
The dpm obtained, being directly proportional to the amount of 33P-RR-src produced by p56lck, were used to determine the IC50 for each compound. The IC50 was defined as the concentration of compound required to reduce the production of 33P-RR-src by 50%.
In this test, compounds according to the invention have IC50 values of 10 μM and above.
Zap-70 Kinase Assay
The tyrosine kinase activity of Zap-70 was determined using a capture assay based on that employed above for p56lck. The RR-src peptide was replaced with polyGlu-Tyr (Sigma; Poole, UK) at a final concentration of 17 μg/ml. After addition of the stopped reaction to the filtermat, trichloroacetic acid 10% (w/v) was employed as the wash reagent instead of acetic acid and a final wash in absolute ethanol was also performed before scintillation counting. IC50 values were determined as described above in the p56lck assay.
In this test the compounds of the invention have IC50 values of around 10 μM and above.
EGFr Kinase Assay
The tyrosine kinase activity of the EGF receptor (EGFr) was determined using a similar methodology to the p56lck kinase assay, except that the RR-src peptide was replaced by a peptide substrate for EGFr obtained from Amersham International plc (Little Chalfont, UK) and used at the manufacturer's recommended concentration. IC50 values were determined as described previously in the p56lck assay.
Protein Kinase C Assay
Inhibitor activity against protein kinase C (PKC) was determined using PKC obtained from Sigma Chemical Company (Poole, UK) and a commercially available assay system (Amersham International plc, Amersham, UK). Briefly, PKC catalyses the transfer of the γ-phosphate (32p) of ATP to the threonine group on a peptide specific for PKC. Phosphorylated peptide is bound to phosphocellulose paper and subsequently quantified by scintillation counting. The inhibitor potency is expressed as either (i) the concentration required to inhibit 50% of the enzyme activity (IC50) or (ii) the percentage inhibition achieved by 10 μM inhibitor.
In this test the compounds of the invention have IC50 values of around 10 μM and above.
